Halton Euro Campaign trail 4

Unable to leaflet last Friday in Hale owing to family committments. But Linda and I did manage to do some in the pouring rain in the Farnworth area of Widnes Friday evening.

Several people have said that apart from the leaflets through the post no other party has been out leafleting to date. And at least one person mentioned that they'd vote Green because of this.

I'm sure that when people saw us wandering round in a sodden mess they either thought we were mad or believed strongly in something!

Went out for a short period today - seemed to be warmly received by people.

Recent opinion polls augur well for Greens polling around 11%. The BNP are currently on 4% - this could change and particularly as Nick Griffen is lead BNP candidate here in the north west more BNP resources could be used to push and bolster their campaign in this area. So no time for complacency - if there was ever a candidate who should win a seat here it's Peter for all sorts of reasons - so I'll be out leafleting hopefully till June 3rd. Please join us if you can!
